Explanation:
The City is responsible for continually assessing and ensuring the functionality of the wastewater collection system, including 85 lift stations and over 280 miles of sewer mains. The Department of Public Utilities (“Department”) has a long-standing program to reduce the inflow and infiltration (“I&I”) of storm and groundwater into the wastewater collection system. This program includes the repair and replacement of manholes and other wastewater collection system components.
On May 3, 2023, pursuant to Resolution No. R-2023-124, the City Commission authorized the execution of a unit price contract with Inliner Solutions, LLC (“Inliner”) in the amount of $1,000,000.00 for I&I Program - Cured-In-Place Pipe Lining (“CIPP”), a method to reduce I&I into sewer pipes. The existing contract with Inliner was for an initial term of one year, with two optional one-year renewal terms. On June 18, 2024, pursuant to Resolution No. R-2024-196, the City Commission authorized the renewal of the unit price contract with Inliner for I&I Program - Cured In Place Pipe Lining in the amount of $900,000.00.
On June 21, 2023, the City Commission passed and adopted Resolution No. R-2023-188, approving a professional services agreement with Hazen and Sawyer, P.C. (“H&S”) to provide engineering services related to the I&I program. H&S is in the process of conducting I&I project prioritization and recently recommended work, including CIPP lining, in six sewer basins as urgent projects. Based on the H&S preliminary findings, it is estimated that these urgent projects can be accomplished with a task budget of approximately $1,200,000.00 for CIPP lining under this contract.
The Department is currently operating under Consent Order Number 21-0392, issued to the City by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, making compliance an even greater concern. The Department, therefore, deems it prudent to renew the unit price contract with Inliner, to cover the documented issues, as well as any additional necessary work, for an increased contract amount of up to $1,900,000.00.
This agenda item seeks the City Commission’s approval and authorization by the appropriate City officials to execute the second of the two renewal terms with Inliner for a one-year period for construction services related to l&l Program - CIPP in an amount of up to $1,900,000.00.
The contract is to be renewed for an additional 365 days from the expiration date of the original agreement.
